Mealtime Pressure

You’re not a bad parent if you’ve done any of these (I certainly have!)⁠ ⁠ We have the best of intentions. As parents, there’s nothing we want more than for our children to be well-fed, happy, and healthy! And when our children eat very little, reject fruits and veggies or a meal completely, it’s incredibly hard not to worry and get frustrated!⁠

Here’s what the feeding gurus at Solid Starts said:⁠ ⁠ Babies and toddlers spit for 3 reasons:⁠ 🔸They want to see the food before swallowing it.⁠ 🔸They made a motor mistake and their tongue pushed food forward.⁠ 🔸They have too much food in their mouth.⁠

Which plate is best?

Which Plate is best? Will serving food on a divided plate make my child a picky eater?⁠ ⁠ Short answer.
